Dear people,
I created a plot which looks like this:
Ee1<-matrix(c(88,86,74,62,41),ncol=5)
colnames(Ee1)<-
c
("Lehrer
","Lehrerinnen","Klassenkollegen","Klassenkolleginnen","Geschwister")
par(las=1)
par(mar=c(5,13,4,2))
barplot(Ee1,horiz=T,col="grey85",border="NA",xlim=c(0,100),axes=F)
axis(2,pos=10, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=20, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=30, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=40, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=50, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=60, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=70, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=80, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
axis(2,pos=90, tick=T, tcl=F, labels=F,col="white")
Now I would like to shorten the whole thing - namely use only one
step to
create the 9 axes without having to use a loop.
See if grid() is helpful:
barplot(Ee1,horiz=T,col="grey85",border="NA",xlim=c(0,100),axes=F)
grid(nx=9, ny=NA, col="white")
Somehow using axis to draw elements inside a graph seems "wrong",
especially when you are using it for what is basically side-effect as
you have been attempting. Could also have used abline which accepts a
vector for its v argument.

> abline(v=seq(10,90,by=10), col="white")
In general, I would be interested if there is a way to use a function
several times changing only one argument, without having to use a
loop.
A large number of functions will offer that facility using seq() as
the functional input argument.
Does anyone know how to do that.
